This one was really fun and I like how there’s a lot of differences between this one and books books one to three. I like that we got to see another side to these aliens, someone who lives outside of the tribe and learn a little bit of the history. Of course, the romance and the smut was enjoyable, which let’s be honest is the main reason why we all read these books!

Definitely not my favorite in the series so far but I did like the change in pacing and timeline with this one. Harlow was not as much of an intelligent badass like she was portrayed in Kira's story, which made me a little more disappointed. As usual I couldn't wait to turn the page and see what was in store for the next chapter!

One of my favourites from the series. Rukh is sweet, Harlow is strong and consistently optimistic. The drama near the end felt a little fabricated, but I don't mind.

Decent.

It's a better take on the "barbarian kidnaps human post resonance" than whatever the hell Barbarian Alien was. Still on the same level though because although the relationship does feel better than Barbarian Alien, it still fell very flat IMO.

Also, the timeline in general just feels so meh. During this book, Harlow meets Rukh, they Mate, they fall pregnant, they give birth, get the khui, and have their happily ever after. I don't know how I feel about this. It's too condensed to be less than 200 words. 

Also a long-lost brothers trope, which I, again, don't know how to feel about.
